Hi All,
Are you an expertise in getting ancient DNA? Currently I am looking researchers who have expertise in getting DNA from old herbaria collections. Even better if you have it with Ascomycota (Fungi). If so and you like to collaborate with taxonomist to work in projects about systematics, evolution and biogeography, please contact me at [email protected] or [email protected] and write in the subject of the email "ancient DNA". I am looking for collaboration to learn these technics but also you will be coauthor of the results of this project that start in July.
Best wishes
Luis
Hi, do have a contact with Kare Liimatainen and Tuula Niskanen working at Kew, London, England. They are working with Agaricales though...
Hi, I work with ancient DNA. In particular, I'm working on a project that involves an old mycological collection (Pier Andrea Saccardo collection) stored in the Botanical Garden of Padova. In this collection there are mainly Ascomycota.
The aim of the project is to extract the DNA and amplify the ITS region from type specimens in order to revise them from a systematic point of view.
If you are interested you can take a look to our publication Article Next Generation Sequencing of Ancient Fungal Specimens: The ...
